Mothercare was a British maternity and baby products retailer founded in 1961. The UK retail business entered administration in November 2019 and all standalone Mothercare stores closed as a result. Since 2020, Mothercare-branded products have continued to be sold in the UK through an exclusive franchise arrangement with Boots, available in larger Boots stores and through boots.com, while the brand also continues to operate internationally through franchise partners in other countries.
Does Mothercare offer an NHS discount?
No NHS-specific discount applies to Mothercare-branded products directly, since Mothercare no longer operates its own UK retail business or website. Where Mothercare items are bought through Boots, the existing Boots loyalty and discount terms apply instead of any standalone Mothercare scheme.
Buying Mothercare products through Boots
Mothercare clothing, pushchairs, car seats, nursery furniture and travel products are stocked in larger Boots stores and on boots.com, the result of the exclusive UK franchise agreement in place since 2020. Boots stocks a wide range of other baby products too and offers NHS staff discounts through its loyalty programme, making it the most direct route to Mothercare-branded items in the UK.
Other retailers for baby and maternity products
John Lewis, Argos and Smyths Toys also carry extensive baby ranges beyond the Mothercare brand. For specialist maternity clothing, ASOS stocks maternity lines and offers NHS discounts through verified platforms.
NHS discounts on baby and children’s products
The baby and child deals page and the NHS clothing discounts page cover a range of brands including those with maternity lines. For a broader range of NHS deals across shopping categories, the NHS shopping discounts page lists current offers across a wide selection of retailers.
